Abstract
Rates of solvolysis of complex ions [Co(3Rpy)~4~Cl~2~]^+^ with R = Me and Et have been determined in mixtures of water with tβbutyl alcohol over a range of temperatures. Extrema found in the enthalpy Ξ__H__* and entropy Ξ__S__* of activation are correlated with the physical properties of the solvent mixtures which are influenced by changes in the solvent structure and these extrema are compared with those found for the solvolysis of related complexes in water + alcohol mixtures. Isokinetic plots over wide ranges of Ξ__H__* and Ξ__S__* are compared for the solvolysis of Co^III^ complexed to a variety of ligands. The application of a free energy cycle shows that the emergent cobalt (III) cation in the transition state becomes increasingly stabilized in waterβrich mixtures relative to the cobalt (III) cation in the initial state as the mol fraction of tβbutyl alcohol increases.
